Tomer’s Take: After an active snow period the Western pattern is shifting. The jet moves north through 4/16 and favors the PNW, BC, and Northern Tier. There is one cut-off low on/after 4/12 that might spread moderate to heavy snow into UT and CO 4/13-4/15. Programming Note: I’ll start switching over to Spring/Summer forecasting soon […]
Tomer’s Take: I’m forecasting one more significant storm systems for the West through 4/5 then the pattern shifts with more high pressure ridging and storm track shifts north. The big snow bullseye is the Wasatch late 4/2-4/5 with over three feet in my forecast. My forecast video 4/1:
Tomer’s Take: I’m forecasting two storm systems through 4/8 plus a cut-off low riding the southern branch. This low could sit and spin for a couple days with snow for CO/NM. Mammoth Mountain set their all-time snow record now at 702″ for the season at the Base. Alta and the Wasatch continue to get pounded. […]
Tomer’s Take: A change in the forecast has occurred. Instead of three storm systems, I’m now seeing two storm systems through 4/8. This will decrease overall snowfall amounts. The biggest change is to CA’s forecast totals, which have decreased significantly. Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows three areas of low pressure but only two make […]
Tomer’s Take: I’m forecasting three different storm systems through 4/7 with deep snow bullseyes in CA, ID, WA, OR, MT, WY, UT, CO. Season To Date Snowfall A number of these totals are all-time records. The race to 800″ is on. Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows the powerhouse area of low pressure hitting CA […]
Tomer’s Take: Choo choo! The snow train keeps running through 4/6 with deep snow bullseyes. Record breaking snow totals continue. Deep snow bullseyes in CA, WY, UT, CO, MT, OR, WA, ID. Programming Note: I’ll have a full report on our transition to El Nino coming soon. Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows the storm […]
Tomer’s Take: I’m forecasting deep snow bullseyes through 4/5 with feet of accumulation in CA, UT, WY, CO, MT. Colorado is pushing 700 inches in a few locations -> 49.5 inches of snow-water-equivalent (SWE) as per Snotel on Buffalo Pass/Tower, CO (Northern Mountains @10620′). A rough conversion puts it around 700 inches of total snow […]
Tomer’s Take: Three storm systems are lined-up through 4/4 with deep snow bullseyes in CA, WY, UT, CO. Snow records continue fall. Alta, UT and Brighton, UT both broke their all-time season snow accumulation records (748″ and 765″ respectively). My mountain weather forecast video 3/26: Forecast Timing Forecast radar/satellite valid 3/26-3/31: Jackson Hole, WY 3/26: […]
Tomer’s Take: Three storm systems lined-up through 4/3 with a continuation of deep snow bullseyes breaking all-time snow records. Heavy snow in CA, UT, WY, MT, CO. 25″/24 hours at Alta pushing them to 749 inches for the season. Alta should break 800 inches. 749 inches breaks their all-time season snow record of 748 inches. […]
Tomer’s Take: Three storm systems drop heavy snow in a few locations through 4/2 including WY, UT, MT, CO, CA. 9″/24hrs at Jackson Hole. Now at 542″ for the season. Beautiful view this morning: Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows a trio of low pressure systems over the Pacific. Forecast Pattern Forecast jet stream valid […]
